What it is

Balance bike from 3 → pedal bike without training wheels, typically 5–6.

Start preparing

1. Balance bike: lower the seat so both feet are flat; 'glide' games down a gentle slope.
2. Switch to a pedal bike with pedals removed for a week, then add them; skip training wheels.
3. Helmet is the law for children in Israel — and for you as the model.
